Bianca de Blanchefort’s life of frivolous luxury ended in a cold, lonely death after her husband perished on the battlefield, leaving her with nothing but a reputation as a wicked, selfish wife. However, a miraculous twist of fate grants her a second chance as she awakens in her eighteen-year-old body, years before her ruinous downfall. Haunted by the memories of her starvation and exile, Bianca vows to rewrite her story by turning her hollow marriage into a thriving partnership. Her survival depends on a bold new strategy: she must convince her stoic and distant husband, Count Zachary de Arno, that she is no longer a spoiled child, but a woman capable of securing their legacy.

Winning the heart of a legendary warrior who has spent years ignoring her is no simple task, especially when her own pride and the castle's hostile servants stand in her way. As Bianca navigates the treacherous waters of courtly politics and her own internal guilt, she realizes that the "business" of her marriage is far more dangerous and potentially more rewarding—than she ever imagined. With greedy rivals circling the Arno territories and her own heart finally beginning to thaw, she must stand firm against those who wish to see her fail. Driven by an unwavering dream to protect her home and find a place where she truly belongs, Bianca will stop at nothing to transform a marriage of convenience into a love that can withstand the tides of time.
